After upgrading a 3.4-S machine to 4.0-S, I noticed the following:

WARNING: driver rp should register devices with make_dev() (dev_t =
"#rp/0x10088")

I remade /dev/ttyR* and /dev/cuaR*, and am still getting this
message.  The ports seem to work OK, but I'm just curious.  Is this some
kind of compatibility quirk, or is something actually broken?

/dev entries look like:

rimmer:/usr4/mike$ ls -l /dev/ttyR0 /dev/cuaR0
crw-------  1 uucp  dialer   81, 0x00010080 Jul  8 02:29 /dev/cuaR0
crw-------  1 root  wheel    81, 0x00010000 Jul  8 02:29 /dev/ttyR0
rimmer:/usr4/mike$

Understated/funny man-page sentence of the current time period:

From route(4) on FreeBSD-3.4, DESCRIPTION section:
    "FreeBSD provides some packet routing facilities."
    ...duh.......
